Intro: EGAEVerse 1E
I love spring and dogs and rusty screen doors
G
Candle light on creaky wood floors
AEA good sunrise and fireflys in a jar, yessir
EA banjo ringing through the pines
GA
The way I feel on homemade wine and jug fishing
E
Under a sky full of stars
Pre-Chorus 1AE
Said I'm okay, yes, I'm just fine
A
Just wish the world would move slower
B
Or that I could go back in time
ChorusE
Well, but I'm still a down home southern boy
GAE
I don't need nothing just enough to get me by
EA
I was raised at an early age when you shake a man's hand
AE
You look him square in the eye
EG
Well, I'm a real cool, old school, don't you lie to me fool
AE
There ain't a damn thing about me fake
EG
I'm a modern day John Wayne, got my daddy's last name
AEEGAE
Born fifty years too late, yep
Verse 2EG
So whatever happened to an honest day's work
AE
Sweating hard in a flannel shirt
EG
It's a fast paced rat race, no giving all take
AE
Who's gonna finish first
EGAE
Nowadays it's safe to say that a damn dog's got more rights
EG
Cause the administration's trying to rule the population
AE
Folks, we gotta stand up, we gotta fight
Pre-Chorus 2AE
But I don't complain, just take it all in stride
A
It just seems this whole world, it has changed
B
Almost overnight
(Repeat Chorus)
